Vanisa is a Greek name for girls. Possibly a variant of Vanessa, it can be understood as “butterfly.” The story goes that author Jonathan Swift coined the name for his lover, Esther Vanhomrigh, by adding ‘Van’ from her last name and “Essa”, the pet form of her last, together. Rooted in love, this endearing name will work well for your precious one, especially if you’d like to see them spread their wings and fly.
